Our Process
Our Process
SAI Air Duct has been improving indoor air quality in Illinois for over 15 years. Our specialty is in cleaning air ducts and dryer vents. We look forward to helping you breathe clean air. We pride ourselves in our great customer service. Below is the process of our cleaning service and what you can expect.
1. SCHEDULING
From your first call to SAI Air Duct Clean, you will experience our award-winning, 5-Star service. We will answer all of your questions. You can expect an accurate price (NO SURPRISES).
2. ARRIVAL
When we head out to your home, a text message is sent out if you’ve provided us with a mobile number. We arrive on time and within the 3-hour window that we agreed upon during scheduling.
3. TRUCK MOUNTED
Our Monster Vac Trucks give us the power to easily remove your most stubborn dust and debris from your ducts. We are known for removing items that previous companies have missed!
4. HOME PROTECTION
Our goal is to keep your home clean. We do that by laying drop cloths and corner protectors where our vac hoses run and wearing booties on our shoes. We seal the door to protect your home from extreme outdoor weather. We will always respect your home.
5. ATTACH SUCTION
We make access openings into the main ducts (Trunk Line) and attach our massive 8” vacuum hose drawing up to 15,000 CFM of air. This is enough suction to put your entire system under tremendous negative pressure.
6. CLEAN SUPPLY DUCTS
We start by cleaning each supply vent individually while an incredibly large volume of air is being pulled to the truck. We have tools for different scenarios.
7. CLEAN RETURN DUCTS
We then clean each cold air return individually, including drops. A series of agitators are also sent through each duct where possible, breaking up the debris.
8. CLEAN MAIN DUCTS (Trunk Line)
We finish up the ductwork by scrubbing all the ductwork with our powerful whips and Spider Whips attachments powered by our 200+ PSI air compressor.
9. BEFORE AND AFTER PICS
We provide FREE before and after pics to prove the results of our work. We take pride in hearing you say “WOW!” when we show you the SAI Air Duct Clean difference.
10. FURNACE AND BLOWER COMPARTMENT CLEANING
No duct cleaning is complete without an equally clean furnace and blower compartment. The furnace should be cleaned annually for the cleanest and the most efficient out of your system.
11. SEAL THE ACCESS OPENINGS
We seal the access openings, we made during the cleaning. We use 26 gauge sheet metal, foil tape, and screws to cover the 8” access openings, and 1” plugs for the1” openings.
12. FINAL WALK-THROUGH
We show you what we did and have you sign off on the work with your satisfaction. Pack up equipment, clean up work area, and place a reminder sticker on the furnace. Full system cleanings are recommended every 2 years for most residential systems. Thanks for having us out!
